The world is running out of natural resources. Mankind has been working on a project to terraforming other planet, and schedule to launch "ADVANCE" — a spaceship for terraforming — on July 7th.

Itaru is a girl who adores space since a child; she believes space is humanity's future. Itaru has been building her own small rocket with a help from Asuka and Kotone for quite some times.

And the day of launching "ADVANCE" comes —.

The director is Miyamoto Yukihiro (Madoka Magica's series director), character design is Shiotsuki Kazuya (Koufuku Graffiti), storyboarded by Kamitsubo Ryouki (Hidamari Sketch), with Ito Yoshiaki (Hidamari Sketch) as a main animator.

There are two ending songs (for some reason) which they did it very nicely. When the ED begins in the anime, Daisy x Daisy enters the stage and start singing the ED live. Two songs are titled "Ryuusei Dreamer" and "Hana to Diamond".

After the mini concert by Daisy x Daisy, three main casts —Kitamura Eri, Imai Asami and Anzai Chika — entered the stage. Mimori Suzuko is at AFA Singapore so she can't join physically. She didn't left any video messages, instead, Mimori join the talk event (live video) with Skype from her hotel in Singapore.

The talk event was fun. They also reveal they have already recorded several OVAs already. Since the settings and story for each one is different, doing a record for different OVA on succession is a little hard since they have to completely forgot what they just did earlier. There's also a moment when Kitaeri asked the staff "Can I say it? About the one who make the OVA" before telling everyone "It's made by Madomagi's staff."

After the talk event, the event concluded with preview video for Prism Nana OVA 4 Hoshizora-Hen (directed, storyboarded, written by Numata Seiya) which will be about Hiiragi Mako and a chorus club (with Itaru, Asuka, Kotone and one other new character as club member). Ending song for this episode will be "Hoshizora Connection" (the song from PV.)

No details about release date, although they will do pre-screening for all volumes. The animation quality is in the same level as the PV, which is pretty surprising in itself. To be honest, it's everything I expected it to be. It was totally worth the 3 years wait for me.

There's no Shinbo's name in the credit, so I guess he's uninvolved. In the "making of" book they gave to all participants, the character design also said "At SHAFT we have a direction guide book, but this time we decided to not follow it." This must also be why the OVA is very different from their usual stuff.



Obapahappa!

Aw damn, today was just a prescreening, shouldn't have kept my hopes up. I'll just wait for the official video release then.

No idea where is that report is coming from, but there's no fifth mahou shoujo in the OVA. (Lightning Nana made her appearance in OVA 1, but everyone already knows that's Anzai Chika.) Even though there is a new character in OVA 4, the new character doesn't have any spoken lines (she just appeared in few frames and in the final key visual).

Also MiKA (Daisy x Daisy's vocal) mentioned she will voice a character in certain OVA. But she already revealed this back in Comike event…

Not announced yet.

[Stark700]

Some preview images are out

[moodie]

HOLY SHIT

it looks soo beautiful i need this!!!!

[Tempester]

Nice pics, but I'm not satisfied. Freaking WHEN? I wish they'd announce the release date already.

[sirn]

Comike today.

Looks like the above information was right. New character for Hoshizora-hen, Riino will be voiced by Nanjo Yoshino. (The glasses girl in new key visual.) Another new girl, Hina will be voiced by Daisy x Daisy's MiKA. But it looks like they will only be in Hoshizora-hen (for the time being).

No new info about release date yet. Hoshizora-hen is scheduled to be (pre-)screened in Spring 2016.
